Former President Donald Trump has filed a defamation lawsuit against the Pulitzer Prize board for jointly awarding the New York Times and Washington Post the 2018 National Reporting prize over their coverage of the Russian collusion scandal.
Trump’s lawsuit, filed Tuesday in Okeechobee County, Florida, claims that the “demonstrably false connection was and remains the stated basis” for the papers’ award-winning coverage, Fox News reported.
“A large swath of Americans had a tremendous misunderstanding of the truth at the time the Times’ and the Post’s propagation of the Russia Collusion Hoax dominated the media,” the complaint states. “Remarkably, they were rewarded for lying to the American public.”
The Washington Post and the Times received the award for their “deeply sourced, relentlessly reported coverage in the public interest that dramatically furthered the nation’s understanding of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and its connections to the Trump campaign, the President-elect’s transition team and his eventual administration,” according to the Pulitzer website.

God bless President Trump! The ends do not justify the means.
Trump will forever be obsessed with 2020 and its is consuming him.
I know Trump is a billionaire, but just how much does he spend on lawyers per year? it must be 10’s of millions at a minimum.
If you never clean up the garbage, what happens to YOUR home?
A novel theory on defamation. Looking forward to seeing how this progresses. Also looking toward 2024.
This IS focusing on 2024. :-)
It’s hopeless. The libs produce spew by the metric ton and DT is trying to clean it up with a teaspoon.
DeSantis 2024 Is a Trap:
If voter fraud is not addressed, it doesn’t matter who the candidate is, because democracy in America won’t exist.

[Conclusion]
“If we don’t address voter fraud, it doesn’t matter who the candidate is because democracy in America won’t exist, and your vote won’t matter—just as it hasn’t mattered for two years. How did we get from a prosperous nation and global peace to where we are now? It wasn’t just COVID. It was you. And it was me. Our government denied us the most important right we have—they stole our votes. And we said, “OK, I guess it must have been something we did.”

No wonder Hunter had gotten aggressive in this respect.
It’s what an honest man does.
But Hunter does NOT want discovery, so his are empty threats.
As for 2024, Trump faces ‘use it or lose it’ (statute of limitations).
—> Can’t we just focus on 2024?
No
I like focusing on the totally corrupt dem/media machine. Of course, the machine squelches the news and oddly you seem to want to. Focusing on that machine going into ‘24 is essential. The machine is bigger, stronger, more corrupt than ever today. I’m sure Trump gains much satisfaction rubbing their noses in it. I do.
This was before 2020. And I wonder if while Trump is at it with this lawsuit, special consideration and mention should possibly be given to them giving Uncle Walter a Pulitzer Prize.

Who cares!?!
We peons can’t afford to sue the big fish.
Trump can.
If these lefts weren’t always using lawfare to intimidate and attack people, I would suggest Trump is just being petty. But I actually love this move. Go Trump. He may not win, but at least he will give them a little of their sides’ own medicine
MAGA would be better served if Trump financed good candidates rather than lawsuits that he is destined to lose. If I am wrong about “destined to lose,” please explain why.
How do you win an election if you don’t reveal the steal first? Should Kari Lake just roll over too?
You appear to be a 2020 election denier and following orders from your leftwing masters.
He is angry because the Washington Post doesn’t like him? Cool.
You will forever be obsessed with Ukraine and it’s consuming you.
